1756rif. 37480Madrid. 1756. Hospitals in the New World A rare broadsheet proclamation by Ferdinand VI King of Spain confirming that the law is to be observed in a precise and punctual manner. The pertinent law recorded earlier in the Recopilacion de las Indias outlines the method of reviewing the administration and recording the accounts of the hospitals in the New World maintained by the religious order of St. John of God. The Hospital Brothers of St. John of God were present in America most notably New Spain and Peru beginning in the early 17th century. Following the initial 16th-century wave of evangelization represented by the Franciscans Dominicans Augustinians Mercedarians and Jesuits the Hospital Brothers was one of "another group of orders of varying characteristics but largely devoted to caring for the sick and the destitute in the cities. Their very existence attested the new needs of an increasingly complex colonial society" Bethell. This copy accomplished in manuscript in Buen Retiro on February 13 1756 is signed by Joachim Joseph Vazquez y Morales as representative of the King of Spain with the inscription "Yo El Rey" and the annotation "Por mandado del Rey." Manuscript inscriptions on the recto and verso of the integral blank leaf attest to the document being reviewed by the Spanish colonial government in Santiago de Chile in 1757.

Domenech was a missionary in Texas and Mexico and chaplain and almoner in the service of Maximilien Emperor of Mexico. He wrote a number of works on the American southwest and the American Indian including a rather unfortunate treatise which seriously discredited his scholarly abilities. This particular work is based on a number of sources including an earlier book Missionary Adventures in Texas and Mexico but it is chiefly a compilation from Pacific Railroad reports from which some of the plates were also taken. Other plates are lifted from the work of George Catlin. Parts of the text relate to Texas New Mexico California Utah Oregon Louisiana Minnesota &c. with some mention of Canada. There are sections on Indian antiquities; and descriptions of the various tribes customs languages religions &c. Morizot unknown books
